CAUTION! Protect your ears! This video is raw video and has not been rendered for even sound. At a couple of points, there is loud dog barking. Don't use headphones to listen to this segment.

This is one of many short video segments which will be added to the Digital Tipping Point (DTP) archive. This video segment features background footage (b-roll) of the build-in at CitizenSpace on February 15, 2009. Citizenspace is a collaboration space located at 425 2nd Street in San Francisco. (It is an open work space which in many ways embodies the collaborative spaces in which Free Open Source Software is created and distributed. The DTP crew are following the story of CitizenSpace merely because it is a physical metaphor for the collaboration that happens in the virtual world of cyberspace. )

In this b-roll footage, we see clips of Ridley The Wonder Dog (the little black pug in the dashing red sweater) patroling the space to monitor safety compliance (not). His doggy pal, Teddy arrives with Adam Metz. CitizenSpace founder Tara Hunt confers with Mariva Aviram about where to find supplies. Enric Teller shots his own memorial video of the event. CitizenSpace volunteers assemble chairs, drill tables, and screw cabinets together. This footage is obviously going to be used during voice-overs to discuss issues of collaboration, joint "ownership" of CitizenSpace, and the way that Free Open Source Software is cobbled together, often by volunteers, out of modular pieces of code that are available for free on the Internet.
